The Authority may, subject to the necessary approvals being in place and confirming the Services and Charges with the Supplier for Parts C and or D, progress to Parts C and or D of the Contract. <br/><br/>The Authority would also draw the Supplier’s attention to the Authority’s right to terminate the Contract pursuant to clause 14.3.
